      When I read this recipe I thought... wow, that's a lot of garlic and parsley. But I made it... hoping that it wasn't like some where it's so garlicky that that is all you taste. Well, the parsley, gotta use fresh, and the garlic balanced each other perfectly. Every flavor came through brillantly! There's a lot of oil and butter left so I cooked up 8 oz. of linguine and just added that at the end to absorb the same flavors. My family loved it. I think next time I will add a little white sauce and see what I come up with. Thanks Bethany!

      I must have done something wrong. Mine came out too garlicky (and I love garlic) and very slightly too salty (I used a teaspoon of sea salt). I'm going to try this again with half the salt and a little less garlic as I can see that it could be a great dish.

      Garlicccccccccc! Yummy! This was a really wonderful recipe for garlic shrimp. I served mine over fettucine noodles. The only change I'll make next time (and it's just a family preference) is to half the amount of parsley. Everything else was perfect for us. One thing I didn't know about was if you added all of the marinating sauce to the saute pan or if you picked the shrimp out of the sauce first. I chose to include the sauce so it would coat my noodles.

      Well send my home and call be Buford!! lol OMG!!!! What a delightful experience this was!! A tastbud THRILLER!! Yum! The only thing I would do different is to cut back on the olive oil, next time I will use only 1/4cup, other than that it is perfect. We mixed it with some pasta, and what a wonderful meal. I think next time I'm going to marinate it in some cajan spice (Tony's, the BEST), and grill it in my saute pan that my DS got for me. Maybe some red pepper flakes and lemon zest. Give it a try, you won't be dissapointed. Thanks for such a great recipe!!!

      Delicious shrimp, B! I followed the recipe to the letter, with the exception of squeezing lemon over the finished product. We had these for our "oscar party" and I made Mean Chef's Chipotle Remoulade to dunk the shrimp. Very, very good.

      MMMmmm mmmm good yumminy shrimp! So easy and so packed with flavors that we love! I have made several times now and each time is such a treat! Recently I doubled the sauce and made some thin spaghetti and then added the sauce and shrimp to the pasta. Excellent is all I can say!

      I love shrimp and garlic and this recipe is one of my favorites. I just added some white wine for more flavor and love it. Thanks for this good recipe, Dreamgoddess.

      This was really good! I work night shift so I threw the marinade and shrimp together after I got off of work in the morning, let them marinate while I slept, and fried these in my wok when I got up in the evening before work. I did use dried instead of fresh parsley (I didn't have any fresh) and it still turned out tasting wonderful!!

      LOVE this recipe. So so easy and so delicious. Made exactly as written, however, added some cayenne pepper--we like it a little more spicy. My adult kids and their significant others said to put this into my cookbok that I am making for them. Thanks for such an easy, great recipe.

      OMG!! This IS the best garlic shrimp, or shrimp period, in the whole wide world!! I grilled mine b/c I was already making the Secret Sirloin Steak (Our Secret Sirloin Steak) for Father's Day and it was INCREDIBLE. Used the frozen jumbo shrimp from Trader Joe's and it was better than lobster, IMHO. And cheaper. And easier. Thank you!

      Hubby and I loved it! I only had about 18 jumbo shrimp, so I cut the olive oil, garlic, and paprika in half. Didn't have sea salt but used a little kosher salt instead and freshly ground black pepper. Omitted the butter altogether and the parsley too as I'm not a fan of it. I didn't marinate it ahead of time at all but dumped it all in a skillet together and cooked for 2-3 minutes, then added 1/4 cup lemon juice and gave the shrimp about another 1-2 minutes. I then removed the shrimp to another dish, cooked the remaining sauce down a little and then poured it over the shrimp. Served with brown rice. This one's a keeper. Thanks!

      This recipe has potential with a few modifications. Having read the other reviews I made the following alterations which resulted in a delightful dish. First, use one tsp. smoked paprika and one tsp. paprika. Stir fry the shrimp only 3 minutes maximum. Finish the dish with fresh lime juice before serving.

      This is absolutely mediocre. Gently saute garlic in olive oil, add dry shrimp & cook briefly. Add paprika & parsley. Toss and lower heat. Don't overcook! Same ingredients but gently cooking the garlic gives it better flavor. Don't waste money on shrimp for this mediocre recipe.
